I took this picture yesterday, late in the afternoon. I thought you might like it. Apart from that, we’re now officially in lockdown for two weeks, but it’s not the kind of lockdown you may be experiencing in some countries at the moment. A lot of places are […]
Well, well, well… Those are crazy times, aren’t they? This Coronavirus pandemic puts me in a strange position with this blog (hence the lack of new posts recently). One of its goals is to make you want to come to Kagawa prefecture and visit the Setouchi islands. However, right now, […]

On our fifth day visiting an island for the Setouchi Triennale 2019, we returned to Ogijima for a very special occasion.
